crisp cool fall days...

Can someone send me some nice fall weather, please?! It's 80 degrees here but I am ready for fall and Thanksgiving. I just finished my fall pumpkin box and all I need is some hot cider, a homemade cinnamon cookie, and cooler weather!!!

I was inspired by the beautiful creations of Linda Albrecht so I decided to create a fall pumpkin box using some of the beautiful fall Melissa Frances papers, chipboard leaf, and tags. I stole some berry stems out of my soup toureen to help tie it all together. I may have gotten a bit carried away adding beads to the lace and now I am not very happy about that, but it's still really cute and goes so well with my other fall goodies. (no, I still don't have napkins for my cute napkin holder.LOL)

Sooooo pretty!
But, no, keep that cold weather away from here! I like how fall LOOKS, but not how winter feels! LOL!

We are having an unseasonably warm fall here (new high record yesterday of 71 degrees and today we may break the old record again with a high forecast of 72). I love these temps and wish it would stay like this for a couple more months.
I think your pumpkin tin is darling and goes so well with your tureen and napkin holder!

Oh wow, Suz, that's a gorgeous set. Sorry you don't have nice fall weather to go with it... but just looking at it is good enough to bring those happy fall feelings. :)
